SUBJECT: City of Moorpark
Community Facilities District 97 -1
Proposed) (Carlsberg Business Park Public Improvements)
BACKGROUND
On December 18, 1996, the City Council approved the recommendations of the City's
Financial Advisor and engaged the professionals necessary to proceed with the
preparation of documents related to the formation of the proposed Community
Facilities District No. 97 -1, Carlsberg Business Park Public Improvements (CFD 97 -1)
and the proposed issuance of Special Tax Bonds. CFD 97 -1 and the related Special
Tax Bonds will fund basic infrastructure for the business park /sub - regional retail
commercial portion of the Carlsberg site (Specific Plan 92 -1).
The District is expected to comprise approximately 40 acres of sub - regional
retail /commercial development and 33 acres of business park development. However,
the District may be expanded to 73 acres of sub - regional retail /commercial uses
consisting of a maximum of 795,000 square feet of retail /commercial space.
Alternatively, the business park uses may be expanded from 33 acres to 73 acres if
required to accommodate a single corporate headquarters or similar campus -style use.
Approximately 1,900,000 square feet of office buildings on the 73 acres would be
permitted in this configuration.
Tract 4973 subdivides the 73 acres within the District into Lots 1, 2 and 4, comprised
of 29, 11 and 33 acres, respectively. These three large lots may be further subdivided
into smaller lots to accommodate a variety of retail, commercial and business users.
The public improvements being financed with the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds
the "Project ") are expected to include the construction of (including engineering and
design) power, telephone and gas utilities, street (including portions of Science Drive,
New Los Angeles Avenue and Spring Road), curb, gutters, sidewalks, hiking and open

space trails, landscape, hardscape and striping, traffic signals, street signs and street
lights.
DOCUMENTS
The City Council is being asked to approve a number of Resolutions relative to the
formation of CFO 97-1 and to authorize the issuance of Special Tax Bonds related to
the construction of certain public improvements.
The first Resolution is entitled "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Moorpark of Formation of City of Moorpark Community Facilities District No. 97-1
(Carlsberg Business Park Public Improvements), Authorizing The Levy of a Special Tax
Within The District and Preliminary ~stablishing An Appropriations Limit For The
District. 11 This Resolution restates certain matters that were previously adopted by
Resolution No. 97-1280 entitled 11 A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Moorpark of Intention to Establish a Community Facilities District and to Authorize the
Levy of Special Tax Pursuant to the Mello Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982. 11
In addition, the Resolution declares that those matters contained in the above-stated,
previously adopted Resolution were true and correct and that the City Council declares
that the District is -complex, due to the facilities originally proposed to be financed and
that the rescheduling of the public hearing from April 2, 1997 to July 16, 1997 was
appropriate and that the Local Goals and Policies for Community Facilities Districts
adopted by Resolution No. 97-1279 are in conformance with the proposed CFO 97-1
and that certain boundary adjustments are hereby made.
In Addition, the Resolution also states that the improvements to be financed are
consistent with the Act. Furthermore, the Resolution directs the Finance Director to
take certain actions in regards to the preparation of a current roll of special tax levy
obligations and to estimate future special tax levies pursuant to the Act. (It should be
noted by the City Council that the City will contract with a special tax consultant to
prepare the annual tax levies. Such consultant fees, and other on-going City-related
expenses, will be a continuing obligation of the District, not of the City).
The second Resolution is entitled II A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Moorpark Determining the Necessity to Increase Bonded Indebtedness Within the City
of Moorpark Community Facilities District No. 97-1 (Carlsberg Business Park Public
Improvements). 11 This Resolution restates certain matters previously adopted by City
Council Resolutions No. 97-1280 and No. 97-1281. It also states the necessity to
incur bonded indebtedness in the maximum aggregate principle amount of $7,800,000
for a term not to exceed thirty (30) years.
The third Resolution, entitled II A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Moorpark
Calling Special Election, 11 reiterates certain actions taken by the adoption of the two
1 B.M0.07/09/97 STFRPTJ.02 2
000002
r
previously considered Resolutions. It calls for the City Council to call a special
election to consider the measure, describes how the election is to be held, and by
what method the balloting shall be accomplished. Given that the proposed District has
fewer than 1 2 persons, the City Council will make a determination that the qualified
electors are the landowners within the District.
In addition, the Resolution states that the City Clerk accepts the ballots of the qualified
electors in the City Council Chambers. It also states that the City Council finds that
the provisions of the numbers of minimum days following the adoption of the
Resolution of Formation have been met.
The fourth Resolution is entitled "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Moorpark Declaring Results of Special Election and Directing Recording of Notice of
Special Tax Lien." This resolution states that issues presented at the special election
were the incurring of a bonded indebtedness in the maximum aggregate principal
amount of $7,800,000, the levy of a special tax to be levied in accordance with the
"rate and method", and that other related issues were approved by more than two-
thirds of the votes cast at said special election.
In addition, the Resolution states that the District is fully formed with the authority to
incur bonded indebtedness and to levy special taxes as provided in the preceding and
in the Act.
The fifth Resolution is entitled "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Moorpark Determining and Levying the Special Tax in Community Facilities District No.
97-1 for Fiscal Year 1997-98." This Resolution determines the special tax levy as
shown in Exhibit A, attached to the resolution. It also directs the County of Ventura
Auditor-Controller to prepare a real property tax statement for each parcel within the
District and to take certain other actions necessary for the future collection of taxes.
(Please note that Exhibit A is incomplete. The actual special tax numbers will be
handed out the to City Council prior to the meeting on July 16th.)
Prior to adopting the sixth and final Resolution, the City Council is being asked to
consider the first reading of "An Ordinance Levying Special Taxes Within the City of
Moorpark Community Facilities District No. 97-1 (Carlsberg Business Park Public
Improvements)." This proposed Ordinance states by the passage of said Ordinance,
that the City Council authorizes the levy of special taxes within the District in
accordance with the adopted rate and method of apportionment set forth in a
previously adopted Resolution and hereby authorizes the Finance Director to take
certain actions related to determining the amount of the special tax and to implement
its collection.
The sixth and final Resolution to be considered by the City Council is also the final
action to be taken tonight relative to CFO 97-1. The final resolution is entitled "A
1 B.M0.07/09/97 STFRPTJ.02 3
000003
Resolution of the City Council of the City of Moorpark Authorizing the Issuance of
Special Tax Bonds of the City of Moorpark for Community Facilities District No. 97-1
(Carlsberg Business Park Public Improvements), Approving and Directing the Execution
of a Fiscal Agent Agreement, and Approving Other Related Documents and Actions."
This Resolution simply states that the City Council has conducted certain proceedings
under the Act to form CFO 97-1 and has authorized the levy of a special tax. It
further states that now that these actions have taken place, and that the City Council
is now authorizing the issuance of an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$10,500,000 of Special Tax Bonds. In addition, the Fiscal Agent Agreement between
the City and First Trust of California National Association is hereby considered and
approved, the "bond purchase contract" between Miller and Schroeder Financial, Inc.
and Seidler-Fitzgerald Public Finance is also approved as well as the Official Statement
in the form presented.
RECOMMENDATION
1 . It is recommended that the City Council approves the five above-presented
Resolutions and introduce the above-presented Ordinance for first reading.
2. Schedule another City Council meeting on July 23, 1997 (which is seven ( 7)

2
QOO(J16
to the facilities originally proposed to be financed by the

in the circumstances and agreed to by the representatives of the
owners of all of the land in the District.
SECTION 2. The proposed special tax to be levied within the
District has not been precluded by majority protest pursuant to
Section 53324 of the Act.
SECTION 3. All prior proceedings taken by this City Council
in connection with the establishment of the District and the levy
of the special tax have been duly considered and are hereby found
and determined to be valid and in conformity with the requirements
of the Act. On February 19, 1997, this City Council adopted

It is hereby acknowledged that one of the County Assessor's
Parcel Numbers listed on the map should have been shown as
500-0-350-61, instead of 500-0-350-45. It is further acknowledged
that the owners of land in the District have filed a new parcel map
with the County Recorder, and no special tax was intended to be
levied in the area of the District intended for residential
development (as reflected in the Rate and Method of Apportionment

available to the District to pay for the Facilities and/or the
principal and interest as it becomes due on bonds of the District
issued to finance the Facilities, a special tax sufficient to pay
the costs thereof, secured by a continuing lien against all
non-exempt real property in the District, will be levied annually
within the District, and collected in the same manner as ordinary
ad valorem property taxes or in such other manner as this City
Council or its designee shall determine, including direct billing
of the affected property owners. The proposed rate and method of
apportionment of the special tax among the parcels of real property
within the District, in sufficient detail to allow each landowner
within the proposed District • to estimate the probable maximum
amount such owner will have to pay, are described in Exhibit B
attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein.
SECTION 8.
Facilities are
local agencies
District.
It is hereby found and determined that the
necessary to meet increased demands placed upon
as the result of development occurring in the

responsible for preparing annually a current roll of special tax
levy obligations by assessor's parcel number and which will be
responsible for estimating future special tax levies pursuant to
Section 53340.2 of the Act.

Code, a continuing lien to secure each levy of the special tax
shall attach to all nonexempt real property in the District and

RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAXES
CITY OF MOORPARK
COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 97-1
(CARLSBERG BUSINESS PARK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS)
A special tax shall be levied annually on each Parcel of land within the City of Moorpark
Community Facilities District No. 97-1 (Carlsberg Business Park Public Improvements) (the
"District"), based upon the Special Tax Liability determined by the Finance Director of the City of
Moorpark (the "City"), or his designee, through the application of the following procedures. All
of the property within the District, unless otherwise exempted by the express provisions of the rate
and method of apportionment expressed below, shall be taxed to the extent and in the manner
provided below.
It is intended that all special taxes applicable to Parcels be collected in the same manner
and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes, and that special taxes so levied will
be subject to the same penalties and procedures, sale and lien priority in case of delinquency as is
provided for ad valorem taxes, subject to any covenant for judicial foreclosure with respect thereto
in the Fiscal Agent Agreement for any Bonds of the City for the District. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the City may collect the special taxes at such other times or in such other manner as
necessary or convenient to satisfy the obligations of the District, including by means of direct
billing of the affected property owners.
MAXIMUM SPECIAL TAX
ZONE A: The maximum special tax that may be levied in the Fiscal Year ending June
30, 1998 on any Parcel designated as Zone A is $11,200 per acre (said amount to be levied
pro rata for any portion of an acre).
ZONE B: The maximum special tax that may be levied in the Fiscal Year ending June
30, 1998 on any Parcel designated as Zone Bis $7,800 per acre (said amount to be levied pro
rata for any portion of an acre).
The special tax for Zone A and Zone B shall be levied annually. A Parcel shall be
subject to the maximum special tax for not more than 30 years.
ASSIGNMENT TO CATEGORIES; LEVY
ANNUAL TAX CATEGORIES
On or about July 1 of each year, but in any event in sufficient time to include the levy of
the special taxes on the County's secured tax roll; the City Finance Director, or his designee, shall
determine whether or not each Parcel within the District is Taxable Property, and whether such
Page 1 of 6

JUL 09 '97 14:28 PAGE.01
From. Alan C Kapanicas To Fax#5298270 Date 7/9/97 T1rne 2 13 34 PM
Parcel is designated as Zone A or Zone B. Parcels subject to levy shall be determined based
upon the records of the County Assessor as of the January 1 preceding such July 1.
The City Finance Director, or his designee, shall then determine the Special Tax Liability
for the Fiscal Year commencing such July 1, and then shall allocate such liability among the
Parcels and levy on each Parcel, as follows:
Step 1: Determine the total Land Area of each respective Parcel and for all Parcels in the
District.
Step 2: Multiply the total Land Area for each respective Parcel by the appropriate
maximum special tax for that Zone.
Step 3: If the aggregate amount to be levied based on Step 2 above is greater than the
aggregate Special Tax Liability for such Fiscal Year, reduce the special tax for
each Parcel proportionately, so that the aggregate special tax levy for such Fiscal
Year for all Parcels within the District is equal to the aggregate Special Tax
Liability for such Fiscal Year.
Under no circumstances will the special taxes levied against any Parcel used as a priva k:
residence be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any otht:r
Parcel or Parcels within the District by more than ten (10) percent, pursuant to California
Government Code Section 53321(d), as in effect on the date of formation of the District.
ALLOCATION OF SPECIAL TAX BY OWNERSHIP WITHIN A ZONE
On or about July 1 of each year, but in any event in sufficient time to include the levy of
the special taxes on the County's secured tax roll, the City Finance Director, or his designee, shall
determine which Parcels in Zone A and Zone B are classified as Developed. For those Parcels
classified as Developed, the special tax shall be reallocated among all Parcels having the same
ownership, such that the aggregate tax levy for such Parcels equals the annual tax rate calculated
above for such Parcels, as follows:
Step a: Determine the total Building Floor Area for each respective Parcel and for all
Parcels with the same ownership.
Step b: Calculate the annual building special tax allocation at eighty percent (80%) of the
Special Tax Liability for such Parcels, divided by the total Building Floor Area for
all Parcels with the same ownership.
Step c: Allocate the remaining twenty percent (20%) of the Special Tax Liability for all
Parcels with the same ownership by acreage (said amount to be allocated pro rata
for any portion of an acre) of Land Area within such Parcels.
Step d: Calculate the sum of the building special tax allocation and the land special tax
allocation for each Developed Parcel with the same ownership, such that the sum
shall equal the annual special tax levy for such Parcels.

PREPAYMENTS
The special taxes may be prepaid and permanently satisfied for any Parcel subject to
the levy of the special taxes, when (i) the assessed value of all remaining Parcels in the District
equal or exceed the ratio of three and one-half-to-one (3. 5 to 1) of all remaining Bonds
outstanding following such prepayment, or when (ii) all Parcels of Tax.able Property will be
prepaid and permanently satisfied. An owner of a Parcel of Tax.able Property who desires to
prepay and permanently satisfy the special tax obligation for a Parcel shall notify the City Finance
Director in writing of his or her intention. The City Finance Director, or his designee, shall
calculate and determine the prepayment amount, the value of all remaining Parcels, and such
determination shall be final and conclusive. The prepayment amount for a particular Parcel shall
be calculated as follows:
1. The prepayment amount is computed by dividing the Land Area for such Parcel
by the total land area for all Parcels within the District, and multiplying the results by the
principal amount of any outstanding Bonds.
2. The prepayment amount calculated in (1) above for a particular Parcel will N
(a) increased in the amount of: (i) applicable redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds t,,
be redeemed with such prepayment; (ii) an amount determined by the City Finan(:~
Director or his designee to offset any difference between the amount needed to pay dt:bt
service on the Bonds and the amount derived from the reinvestment of the prepaid spec1.1l
tax pending the redemption of such Bonds; and (iii) an amount determined by the C1~
Finance Director or his designee to pay for the applicable Administrative Expenses to
provide such prepayment; and (b) decreased in the amount of (i) any special taxes
heretofore paid in respect of said Parcel, then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for
payment on the Bonds, and (ii) any reduction in the amount on deposit in the reserve fund
for the Bonds due to the redemption of the Bonds with the proceeds of such prepayment.
The Parcel with respect to which prepayment is made must not be delinquent in any
payment of special taxes previously levied within the District. Prepayment shall not relieve any
property owner from paying those special taxes which have already become due and payable, and
a Notice of Cessation of Special Tax Lien shall not be recorded against any Parcel pursuant to
California Government Code Section 53344, until all special taxes with respect to that Parcel have
been paid.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK
ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. By the passage of this Ordinance this City Council
hereby authorizes and levies special taxes within the District
pursuant to California Government Code Sections 53328 and 53340, at
the rates and in accordance with the method of apportionment set
forth in Exhibit B to the Resolution of Formation (the "Rate and
Method of Apportionment"). The special taxes are hereby levied
commencing in fiscal year 1997-98 and in each fiscal year
thereafter until payment in full of any bonds of the City issued
for the District (the "Bonds"), payment of all costs of the
Facilities to be paid with such funds, and payment of all costs
administering the District.
SECTION 2. The Finance Director of the City is hereby
authorized and directed each fiscal year to determine the specific
special tax rate and amount to be levied for the next ensuing
fiscal year for each parcel of real property within the District,
in the manner and as provided in the Rate and Method of
Apportionment.
SECTION 3. Properties or entities of the State, federal or
local governments shall be exempt from any levy of the special
taxes, to the extent set forth in the Rate and Method of
Apportionment. In no event shall the spec_ial taxes be levied on
any parcel within the District in excess of the maximum tax
specified in the Rate and Method of Apportionment.
SECTION 4. All of the collections of the special tax shall be
used as provided for in the Act, the Rate and Method of
Apportionment, and in the Resolution of Formation including, but
not limited to, the payment of principal and interest on the Bonds,
the replenishment of the reserve fund for the Bonds, the payment of
the costs of the Facilities, the payment of the costs of the City
in administering the District and the costs of collecting and
2
000006
administering the special tax.
SECTION 5. The special taxes shall be collected from time to
time as necessary to meet the financial obligations of the District
on the secured real property tax roll in the same manner as
ordinary ad valorem taxes are collected. The City Finance Director
is hereby authorized and directed to provide all necessary
information to the auditor/tax collector of the County of Ventura
and to otherwise take all actions necessary in order to effect
proper billing and collection of the special tax, so that the
special tax shall be levied and collected in sufficient amounts and
at the times necessary to satisfy the financial obligations of the
District in each fiscal year until the Bonds are paid in full and
provision has been made for payment of all of the administrative
costs of the District.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Finance Director of the
City may collect one or more installments of the special taxes by
means of direct billing by the City of the property owners within
the District, if, in the judgment of the Finance Director, such
means of collection will reduce the administrative burden on the
City in administering the District or is otherwise appropriate in
the circumstances. In such event, the special taxes shall become
delinquent if not paid when due as set forth in any such respective
billing to the property owners.
Whether the special taxes are levied in the manner provided in
the first or the second preceding paragraph, the special taxes
shall have the same lien priority, and be subject to the same
penalties and the same procedure and sale in cases of delinquency
as provided for ad valorem taxes. In addition, the provisions of
Section 53356.1 of the Act shall apply to delinquent special tax
payments.
SECTION 6. If for any reason any portion of this ordinance is
found to be invalid, or if the special tax is found inapplicable to
any particular parcel within the District, by a Court of competent
jurisdiction, the balance of this ordinance and the application of
the special tax to the remaining parcels within the District shall
not be affected.

SECTION 7. The Mayor shall sign this Ordinance and the City
Clerk shall cause the same to be published within fifteen (15) days
after its passage at least once in a newspaper of general
circulation published and circulated in the City.
